London, UK & New Delhi, India – 12 December 2011 – SecurStore UK Ltd, one of the world’s leading providers of Enterprise Cloud Backup & Recovery Solutions, has today announced its new partnership with Royal Ekutir Technology Ltd (RETL), one of the largest IT companies in New Delhi, to sell its Cloud Services to the Indian marketplace.

RETL provides a wide range of IT services which specifically focus on offering long-term IT value to clients. Like SecurStore, RETL is a customer centric IT company that focuses on bespoke IT solutions which match the exact IT needs of the client. The partnership means customers of both companies now enjoy improved global reach and full control when guaranteeing the continuity of their businesses.

Alexander Eiriksson, COO of SecurStore, said, “With existing operations in Europe, North America, South America, Asia, Africa, Australia and New Zealand, SecurStore has always been keen to bring its unique services to the Indian marketplace. We needed an IT partner which shared our goal of offering businesses a long term, sustainable business strategy. RETL approached us, immediately demonstrating a shared vision of how IT services should support businesses. We are very excited RETL is now our main partner for selling SecurStore Cloud Services to the whole of India.”

With both organisations’ head offices in the capital cities of their respective countries, and a combined client base of nearly 2,000 customers strong, the opportunity has helped strengthen the market position of both companies. For SecurStore, the expansion into the Indian landscape market has matched RETL’s ability to deliver enterprise based backup perfectly.

The Asigra Cloud Backup solution supports every major operating system in a unique agentless environment, including, Windows, OS X, Linux, VMware, Hyper V, Exchange, Lotus, GroupWise, SQL, and others. Businesses with laptop users and remote offices are catered for with full military grade encryption which adheres to strict compliance regulations.
It offers the ability to recover files quickly and efficiently. Data is compressed and securely encrypted before it leaves the customer firewall and it is stored in four off-site locations for extensive disaster recovery protection. Bare Metal Backups/Restores, Continuous Data Protection, Brick Level Backups/Restores of emails, and an innovative Multi-Tier storage model, are just some of its enhanced features.

Chander Shekhar, CEO & MD of RETL, concluded, “We wanted a more robust cloud backup solution that could support all major operating systems and environments, therefore providing the ability to offer improved choice and flexibility for our loyal customers. When our New Delhi location is combined with SecurStore’s market leading enterprise Cloud Backup, it strengthens both companies’ businesses models. The customer wins with a globally recognised product and service which offers true IT value.”
